I had no idea he was even ill. He was one of the few family members of the powers that be who served in Iraq. I always respected him and Biden for that. http://news.yahoo.com/joe-biden-says-son-died-brain-cancer-014739791.html
It's very respectable. I didn't know that. People shouldn't be able to comment on these articles. Yahoo comments very encouraging but Finish article that I read was full cold blooded and mean comments. Of course I could just not read them.
Most, if not all, comment sections in news outlets are like that. It's an interesting case study in human nature without restraints. Sorry to hear this happened to a father. That must be so horrible... Horrible beyond words.
I went to debate viewing party between Biden and Palen during their first run. I'm a democrat, but my republican friend had gotten tickets to the event. It was in this big stadium with loads of monitors set up to watch from. Palen even graced is with her presence afterward (gag). Anyway. Biden talked about Beau serving overseas and teared up talking about it. Everyone in the place booed him. They booed a father worried about his son. How awful is that? My deepest condolences go out to the Biden's. No parent should witness the death of their child.
Those guys logic went something like this: "I don't like USA=I don't like Obama=I don't Like Joe Biden=I don't like Beau Biden.
